Specification of Letters Patent.

Patented Ma 13, 1913.

Application filed May 20, 19 12. Serial No. 698,443.

To all whom it may concern Be it. known that I, Mosns J ones, a citizenof the United States, residing at South Mills, in the county of Camdenand State of North Carolina, have invented certain new and usefulImprovements in Combined Heating'and Cooking Stoves, of which thefollowing is a specification.

The present invention relates to a combined heating and cooking stovewhich is peculiarly constructed so as to be advan- .tageously used forbaking, boiling, frying,

and other cooking operations, and which also embodies novel features ofconstruction whereby it can be readily adjusted so as to radiate amaximum amount of heat in cold weather and a minimum amount of heat inwarm weather.

Theobject of the invention is to provide a stove of this character whichis comparatively simple and inexpensive in its construction, whichoccupies but a small amount of floor space, and which can be readilyadjusted as desired.

With this and other objects in view, the invention consists in certainnovel combina tions and arrangements of the parts as will 'more fullyappear as the description proceeds, the novel features thereof beingpointed out in the appended claims.

For a full understanding of the invention, reference is to be had to thefollowing description and accompanying drawings, III which Figure 1 is afront elevation of a combined heating and cooking stove constructed inaccordance with the invention. Fig. 2 is a vertical sectional viewthrough the same on the line 22 of Fig. 1. Fig. 8 is a verticalsectional View through the lower portion of the stove on the line 33 ofFig. 2. Fig. 4 is a horizontal sectional view on the line 1-4 of Fig. 1,and Fig. 5 is a similar view on the line 5-5 of Fig. 1.

Corresponding and like parts are referred to in the followingdescription and indicated in all the views of the drawings by the samereference characters.-

Specifically describing the present embodiment of the invention, thenumeral 1 designates an upright cylindrical body por tion which restsupon a fire box 2 and is in communication therewith through an openingin the top of the fire box. The fire box in turn rests upon an oven 3,the said oven being supported by a base 4 which is held in a slightlyelevated position by suitable legs 5. The oven extendslaterally beyondthe fire box 2, and the said fire box in turn extends laterally beyondthe body portion 1. The top of the fire box is provided on oppositesides of the body portion with openings which are normally closed bylids 6, the said openings being used for cooking purposes in the usualmanner. Pots and kettles may be placed upon the top of the fire box, andthe before mentioned openings therein may be utilized for heating afrying pan or the like. A. door "7 is formed in the front of the firebox, whilea second door 8 is provided at one side of the fire box. Thedoor 7 is formed with the usual damper 9, while the; door 8 is utilizedfor removing ashes and debris from the stove.

A top 10 rests removably upon the upper end of the body portion 1 and isformed with an annular flange 11 which is engaged by tie rods 12extending downwardly to the fire box on the exterior of the bodyportion. The upper ends of these tie rods 12 are capped by nuts 13,and-by removing these nuts the cap and body portion can be elevated fromthe fire box. I

In cold weather, a long body portion is employed so as to radiate amaximum amount of heat, while in warm weather ashort body portion issubstituted for the long body portion so as to radiate a minimum amountof heat. body portions are interchangeable, and can be quicklysubstituted one for the other, a set of short tie rods 12 being employedfor the short body portion, while a set of long tie rods is employed forthe long body portion.

The top 10 is provided with an opening normally closed by a lid 14, andis also formed with a smoke hole 15 which communicates with the smokepipe 16.

The front of the body portion 1 is provided with a door 17 having adamper 18 at the middle thereof, the back of the body portion beingprovided with a fine 19 which communicates at the lower end thereofwitha similar flue 20 extending downwardly through the fire box and oven.The upper end of the flue 19 terminates slightly short of the smokehole, and inlets 21 are provided at the sides of the flue. This fluedoes not The short and long interfere in any manner with the draft ofthe stove, and serves to convey soot and cinders downwardly to a sootchamber 22 provided under the oven 3.

With the above construction, it will be obvious that the smoke and gasesof combustion will pass upwardly through the smoke pipe, while soot andcinders will drop through the fiues 19 and 20 into the chamber 22, fromthis chamber 22 the soot can be removed through a suitable soot openingwhich is normally closed by a small door 28.

Having thus described the invention, what I claim as new and desire tosecure by Letters Patent, is v 1. In a stove, the combination of an ovenhaving a soot chamber under the same, a fire box superposed upon theoven, a soot flue extending through the fire box and oven andcommunicating with the soot chamber, an upright body portion projectingupwardlyfrom the fire box and having a soot flue communicating with thebefore mentioned soot flue of the oven and fire box, the fire boxextending laterally on opposite sides of the body portion to provideareas adapted to be utilizedfor cookingpurposes, and a top supplied tothe body portion.

2. In a stove, the combination of an oven, a soot chamber under thesame, a fire box arranged above the said oven, a soot flue arranged atthe rear of and within said oven and fire box and communicating withsaid soot chamber, a cylindrical body portion vertically and removablysuperposed upon said fire box and having a soot flue arranged in a rearportion therein and registering with said before mentioned soot flue ofthe oven and fire box, a top for said body portion provided with a stackopening therein, and means for securing said body portion to said firebox, said fire box extending laterally on opposite sides of said bodyportion to provide areas adapted to be utilized for cooking purposes.

In testimony whereof I affix my signature in presence of two witnesses.
